openAPP Concerning DMoS entries
I found several Dethroning Moment of Suck entries I have concerns about; normally this is something I’d take to one or more of the cleanup threads in the Projects subfora, but the entries have a range of different problems with them, and are also each for different works, so I think it’s simpler to bring them all here instead. I’m going to folderise each example for organisation (and length) purposes.
- Grotadmorv: I'm not excited to see any more of Toriel in Deltarune, because Chapter 2 completely misunderstood her character. She's just a horribly unlikeable woman who swears constantly and is rude to her ex-husband. There's no in-universe explanation for it either, they still imply she was a good mom in the past. It feels like cheap Out of Character comedy that gets dragged out for too long.
Here’s the problem: none of that is true. I’m currently in the middle of playing this game, and I just wrapped up Chapter 2 and began Chapter 3 a couple of hours ago. So I can state with confidence that:
- Toriel swears precisely once in the entirety of the content currently released for the game (as of writing, that’s Chapters 1 - 4), and it’s one of the mildest swear words to boot (“Hell”). That’s hardly “swearing all the time”.
- Toriel is never anything but cordial and pleasant when talking to Asgore; what “rudeness”, precisely, is Grotad talking about? That she tries to keep her interactions with him brief and leaves abruptly when he shows up trying to convince her to take him back? That’s not rude; Asgore is repeatedly disrespecting her boundaries by constantly trying to get her to take him back. What he’s doing might very well constitute harassment, in fact. She doesn’t owe him engagement; if he’s making her uncomfortable (and he clearly is), she has every right to want to bail, and it isn’t rude to do so.
- How, exactly, is it possible for Toby Fox to “misunderstand” his own character’s personality?
I think this one should be cut wholesale as misinformation. Whether it’s a wild misinterpretation of what Deltarune actually is in relation to Undertale or perhaps driven by an ulterior motive, I couldn’t say.
- Lord Daddy Funk: Jade Empire has a pretty big one. All game other characters have reported seeing a flaw in your fighting style (the reason for this is that Master Li purposely put one in that he could exploit later on to kill you); after roughly 12 hours of gameplay, with all this build up and foreshadowing, you finally kill the Emperor who you've been lead to believe was the real villain, and how does the scene where Li betrays you pan out? With your techniques being quickly exploited in a fight and him defeating you? Nope, you get distracted by something shiny and he kills you without anything save your attention span being exploited.
This one has been contested before, but somehow, it’s still up. I’ve played Jade Empire; it seems pretty clear to me that Master Li isn’t using the Water Dragon’s heart as a distraction. Instead, he’s tossing it up into the air to free up both of his hands for his surprise attack on the Spirit Monk, and then exploits the flaw in the Spirit Monk’s fighting technique by striking at a very specific spot on their body—presumably one which he subtly trained them not to defend. So this is another one I believe is based on false premises (in this case, a misinterpretation of the cutscene in question.)
- SRE 89: I know opinions are going to differ due to religious/political beliefs, but the [[Dethroning Moment Of Suck]] for "Wolfenstein: The New Order" was when Anya was reading her journal, which she used the pseudosynonym Ramona in case she got caught. As she was reading on how she fought Nazis and killed them, she read about how she seduced a Nazi just to kill him, and then later on she got pregnant, and had an abortion. Even though she said it was "Ramona", it was obviously her. I stopped playing the game after that, and I am sure many others did the same. For one, she kept calling it a Nazi baby, even though fetuses have no concept of ideology. Number two, she killed an innocent because at least the Nazis she killed chose to be Nazis. And the messed up thing is, she is Catholic and Catholicism teaches that abortion is a mortal sin and also the fact BJ just accepts her doing something so messed up. I played Wolfenstein due to it being a World War II Alternate History game. I did not play it to hear a woman's back story where she ended up killing a child she got pregnant with just by seducing a Nazi and calling it a Nazi baby, trying to justify killing it, and if it were mention in a sequel, she would pull the whole "I Did What I Had To" crap, which I see it as bad as the Nurember Defense. I stopped playing "Wolfenstein: The New Order" right then and there. I know Bethesda has made games that would be seen as edgy by some, but I thought this was too much. For all I care, Anya can go to Hell!
Lots of problems here, mostly ROCEJ-related:
- It presumes to speak for other players, instead of only for SRE 89 themself (“I stopped playing the game after that, and I am sure many others did the same”.)
- Characterising abortion as “killing an innocent” is common anti-abortionist rhetoric.
- It compares getting an abortion to Mass Atrocity Crimes vis a vis the Nuremberg (not “Nurember”) Defence reference. I’m sorry, but saying “I did what I had to do” after getting an abortion is nowhere near as heinous as saying “I only committed war crimes and genocide because my superiors ordered me to, even though they wouldn’t have punished me for disobeying” is.
- They borked the formatting.
I’m not going to argue the finer points of the politics any further here; suffice to say I, as a woman, feel this is misogynistic hate speech dressed up as criticism of a video game. SRE 89 admits in the very first line that their criticism is rooted in their political and religious beliefs; that would be perfectly fine if they weren’t expressing bigoted beliefs about women and trivialising mass atrocities in the process of critiquing Wolfenstein.
For the record, I do not feel comfortable pinging SRE 89 to this post for discussion, given the inflammatory topic of their entry and its sexist undertones. They’re the only Troper I’d rather not ping, though; I’ll leave it to others to determine if pinging the other Tropers here to discuss is an appropriate step to take.
Wow, that’s... pretty insulting towards Killerwienerdog, isn’t it? Implying they didn’t explain themselves “properly” is a completely unnecessary snipe.
I seem to recall from lurking Edit Banned that Aj Wargo has been in trouble with the mods before, possibly even bounced already? Correct me if I’m wrong. Still, I think the first sentence needs to be cut at the very least. It’s very uncivil.
- Amber 72004 This post from an anti-Pooh's Adventures Tumblr blog
is just badly-written about a user on Deviantart, The users puts hyphens on words such as sick f**k and High time and misspelled the word Quality and he uses all-caps on his post as well, This just come as very unprofessional at best and poorly-written at worst.
Not Tropable, right? Also seems really nitpick-y.
I haven’t removed or modified any of them yet; since it’s Dethroning Moment of Suck, I figured I should err on the side of caution and get consensus to act first.

Edited by DarkJediPrincessopenAnother user removing my WMG entries Videogame
Just now, ttuser023 removed
some content I added
to my own WMG assumptions in WMG.MultiVersus, while at the same time adding an assumption of their own.
As far as I'm aware (since the only content concerning about WMG entries that I know thus far is the description on the main Wild Mass Guessing page), all assumptions should be welcomed regardless of how legitimate and/or outlandish it sounds, unless it doesn't seem too much like a proper theory (which even then seems to be a hard condition to reach in WMG entries). This should imply that while you can remove assumptions you had added yourself beforehand, removing those of other users wouldn't be really allowed.
Aside from sending a PM to ttuser023 so that they can be aware of this query (which I've already done), what should I do in this situation?
Edited by Inky100openTheHero being dewicked everywhere
On Acceptable Feminine Goals and Traits, user ~SimonTrope removed a wick to The Hero in an example/explanation, saying that the trope is being dewicked
.
I put it back
because in the header on the cleanup thread, it says
" While The Hero no longer allows examples itself, references to the term in the text of other examples are fine." (my emphasis). The page has—had—The Hero as a reference to the term in a wick.
It's been removed again
by SimonTrope who stated that "According to cleanup thread, The Hero is now a category of tropes, rather than a trope itself. Thus, the trope is being dewicked." A quick check of the edit history shows they're dewicking it across any page it's on
, regardles of if it's just a reference or not.
If I put it back without consult, I'm causing an Edit War. The thread itself says in multiple places that it can be used and wicked in examples
, just not as an example.
Here's the example in question before any edits were made:
- Men Act, Women Are: Men take active roles in the story, and are defined by their achievements and character. Women are passive, and defined by passive things like how they look, or their sexual history, or relationships to men, or status as mothers, not by achievements. (Unless those "achievements" are something related, like being the World's Most Beautiful Woman, being a virgin, or somehow being Not Like Other Girls, or being the mother of The Hero.)
resolved Suspicious review thinly veiled as a personal attack.
Troper Biri made a rather suspicious review
of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood that comes off more as complaining than reviewing it. When other viewers asked about their hatred of Fred Rogers himself, they proceeded to go on a rant alleging that he was a homophobe/anti-LGBTQ, a phony, using a Christian agenda to condescend against children, referring to his fandom as "fanbrats" and, most disturbingly, hoping that someone urinates on his grave.
Now, I get that not everyone is going to like something or someone, regardless of popularity, and if all of that's true about him, so be it, but I don't think being so hostile towards someone's fanbase or hoping that their final resting place be desecrated is okay or complies with the site's rules, do you?

On Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, Ukokira removed
this edit...
- False Flag Operation: Ultimately, this is what the Red Herrings surrounding the Red Samurai amount to. Despite it seemingly being an ally if not Lou or Deadman assisting Sam from beyond the grave, it turns out to be Higgs screwing with Sam, luring him into a false sense of security so he can nab Tomorrow right from under his nose.
... with the reasoning of "This literally isn't true. It's Deadman in the Red Samurai suit up until Higgs hijacks in the DHV when Deadman is explicitly outside of the Samurai body."
I added
back in on my read of "Except Deadman himself says it's not him when the Red Samurai/Higgs appears again in the Magellan. Realistic chiral holograms exist, and if it WAS Deadman he would've cleared it up at some point."
Ukokira then removes
it again with the reasoning of "He is literally talking about that one specific moment when Higgs hijacks the body" (although for some reason, the removal shows
up twice
), followed by two null edits with the edit reasons of "He is literally talking
about thatone specific moment when Higgs hijacks the body We LITERALLY SEE DEADMAN in the suit. He does a whole "we will always be connected speech". It is CLEARLY not a Chiralgram there. How are you being this dense???" and "Deadman being the suit is also in an area
that's explicitly outside of the chiral network. It physically can't be a "realistic" chiralgram".
I'd like to add the False Flag Operation back in, but I want to avoid an edit war. My reading of the whole situation is that Higgs could easily bypass the chiral network in part because of how long he spent on the Beach and being stuck there would've given him some different powers, and thus allow him to puppet the Red Samurai with a chiral hologram of Deadman overlaying the face, and that it wouldn't be out of character of Higgs to deliberately mislead the protagonists. The other reasoning is that Deadman never outright confirms that he was ever masquerading as the Red Samurai, because why would he, what with his heart having been donated to Heartman, and the rest of Deadman's body would've been more than likely incinerated to avoid the chance of a voidout.
openNot Fond of a Change Done to "Rabbit Season, Duck Season"
Hey, I was just over on the Duck Season, Rabbit Season trope page and was dismayed to see that someone saw fit to rip out pretty much all the quotes. So basically the trope has been reduced to talking about the routine but not actually showing it? That was the whole fun with that page, to see all those gags in one easy to find place. How are people supposed to get the humor of the routines without actually knowing how they went?
Now if this was a move to shorten the length of the page, fine. But what real!y irks me is that rather than transfer the lines to the Quote page, the guy who did this just left them in the wind. Now, if I could, I'd scour through the history section and put the deleted lines on the alternate page myself, but it'd be too much of an undertaking for me. Any chance an Admin or somebody would be willing to add the quotes?
openTropers/SMG4fan
I found three problems with SM G4fan.
1. They never pothole (well, they did it once
, linking Manga to The Dark Age Of Comic Books, and that's just plain wrong).
2. Their English is pretty bad, (and coming from me, that mean something).
3. Their claim is dubious. For examples, here
. I known that Fatal Fury (and The King of Fighters) isn't as popular as it used to be, but using porn as proof that "many people in the United States know here from her guest appearance in Dead or Alive" (sic) is questionable by itself.
openBrave Little Toaster Pronoun Conflict
Not long ago, there was a discussion about
the pronouns for the titular character of The Brave Little Toaster. The film itself uses he/him pronouns, while the director and voice actor refer to the toaster with she/her pronouns. The matter was brought to a vote and it was pretty much unanimously agreed
that he/him pronouns should be used.
Troperfind was one of the Tropers who advocated for she/her pronouns, necessitating the discussion to begin. After the consensus was reached, the pronouns on this
page were changed accordingly. However, Troperfind has changed pronouns to she/her, saying "The best thing to do for this situation is to be considerate for both argument, referring to Toaster y both male and female pronouns, so as to settle both sides of the argument."
Thing is, using both male and female pronouns was an option in the voting thread, but no one voted for it. This seems like a dismissal of consensus to push for the opposite, even if the intention was to be fair to both sides.
Edited by iamconstantineopenEdit warring in YMMV Dragon Ball Super Anime
I removed a bunch of entries from the YMMV page of the Granolah's arc from Dragon Ball Super, since they were violations of policy (adding a Broken Base entry just days after the arc had ended, for example, alongside a It Was His Sled entry, and an Audience-Alienating Ending entry when the entire arc is days old). I also removed some entries that read as too much complaining instead of actually showing an audience reaction, particularly concerning Narm, Ass Pull, Franchise Original Sin and Fan-Disliked Explanation.
troper AMassiveOvereditor
(Which originally added most of these entries) added a bunch of entries back, with the exception of the entries that negated policy. What should be done in this case? I feel that rather than reflecting the views of the audience itself, the page just merely centers on the views of this specific troper. Not to say that there isn't examples of Narm and Ass Pull (I left some of those and after some days I thought that maybe I should have added back the Black Frieza entry in Ass Pull), but I feel that the page as a whole is too negative, which is a common problem in the Dragon Ball Super manga pages.

openFat Shaming? Western Animation
The Great Hydra has written four entries for the Amythst/Steven fusion all relvoling around fat tropes which wouldn't be a big deal if those entries weren't written so insulting. I deleted their first three entries only for thirty minutes later, they put another entry (a zero context one too might I add) without even noticing my edit reason for pulling the first three. I don't want to jump to conclusions but I do feel like they might be trolling at least this page. These are their entries.
- Fat Bastard: Their first act upon being born is to beat the living crap out of Jasper, who admittedly deserved it, but the amount of perverse glee they take in doing it cements them into this trope.
- Fat Idiot: The combined intelligence of Steven Universe and Amethyst stuffed into a body three times their width that could be mistaken for a giant milk dud. Need we say more?
- You Are Fat: As part of their self given The Reason You Suck speech in "Know Your Fusion".
- Fat Slob: Natch.

It was originally made as a joke about misspellings of Chekhov's Gun. Eddie himself unilaterally vetoed cutting it or moving or redirecting it to Just for Fun.

openEdit War and Creator Bashing
LookyLooky00 has been edit-warring on YMMV.Fantastic Beasts The Crimes Of Grindelwald. They added a comment to the Unfortunate Implications entry about there only being three Asian actors in the franchise. The comment was removed, with a redirect to the discussion page
so as to avoid an edit war. And there was a discussion, which myself and LookyLooky00 and a couple others participated in. However, then LookyLooky00 went back to the YMMV page and re-added the comment about the three Asian actors anyway, even though the reason for its removal was never sufficiently addressed.
I also notice that they have a very strong anti-J.K. Rowling bias. And in fact, a look through their edit history
shows that complaining about Rowling and her apparent racism is the only thing they've been adding to the site. At this point I'm concerned that they have an agenda at play here.
openGetting rid of Shipping Bias / Reporting two tropers Anime
If you guys don't mind, this is a twofer post that actually goes hand-in-hand. Also, I apologize in advance because this is a long post, but I need to give a lot of information so that you'll understand where I'm going with this.
So I already called for RandomX to be reported in my previous ATT post
, for, among a lot of reasons, shipping bias. I saw shipping bias in their Naruto entry for First Kiss. On August 14th, matruz removed the shipping bias and provided an Edit Reason explaining why it was removed—to paraphrase, "because saving someone's life with CPR does not equate to a kiss, and as an experienced medical ninja Sakura had to have performed CPR on other subjects before Naruto in order to perfect the procedure, so Naruto is not her First Kiss." Also, it's long since been confirmed in the manga and from post-series interviews with creator Masashi Kishimoto himself that Sakura loves Sasuke and not Naruto, and Naruto rejected Sakura in Chapter 469 of the manga. When Sakura performed CPR on him during the War, about 200 chapters after Chapter 469, she was trying to save his life, not trying to kiss him, so it comes off as more of a friendship moment than a romantic one; plus, Naruto wasn't conscious when she performed CPR on him, so it wasn't mutual. Naruto is shown kissing only two people in Canon: Sasuke in Chapter 3 (both he and Sasuke are visibly shown to not enjoy it, due it being an Accidental Kiss), and Hinata in The Last: Naruto the Movie (which is explicitly the first canon movie of the franchise—an advertisement that was published with the final two manga chapters officially called the movie "Chapter 699.5". Here's the proof
). Regarding the kiss with Hinata, Naruto initiates it and is visibly shown enjoying giving her The Big Damn Kiss at the end of the movie, so that was his First Kiss with a girl and also his first mutual and romantic kiss. Based on these facts that I related directly from canon events (and I even provided the manga chapters and the advertisement picture as proof), I agreed with matruz's Edit Reason to remove the shipping bias. However, on September 5th, Trustworthy69 re-inserted the shipping bias that matruz removed, and gave no Edit Reason explaining why it was re-inserted. Edit Reason or not, that is an Edit War on Trustworthy69's part.
Not only that, but I also see shipping bias in Falling into His Arms and Kiss of Life, from EarsplittingLepidopteran. For Falling into His Arms, the description states that it's a very romantic trope, but EarsplittingLepidopteran deleted the Minato/Kushina example (which was romantic) and inserted Naruto saving Sakura and being stabbed by her poisoned kunai (which was not romantic. This event also occurred in Chapter 484, 15 chapters after Naruto rejected Sakura, which makes it even less romantic), and then the way this person worded their completely blanked-out spoiler-tag entry (which is not allowed, according to Handling Spoilers) sounds like shipping bias, so it did not employ neutral wording. The Kiss of Life Naruto entry written by EarsplittingLepidopteran also claims the First Kiss issue, but as I explained in my previous paragraph, and as matruz's Edit Reason stated in the Ship Tease Anime and Manga page and in First Kiss, an experienced medical ninja would have performed and perfected the CPR procedure long before Naruto, so he was not her First Kiss, and she loves Sasuke and was trying to save Naruto's life, but he was unconscious and he already rejected her in Chapter 469, so it was not mutual. Also, Naruto finally woke up from unconsciousness not from Sakura's CPR, but rather from the Sage of Six Paths giving Naruto his powers; this was shown in Chapters 671 and 672. Therefore, the Kiss of Life Naruto entry is not a valid example.
Getting to the point of my post, based on what I have said: 1) The Naruto entries for First Kiss, Falling into His Arms, and Kiss of Life should be reworded to be neutral and display no shipping bias, or even some entries should be removed because they do not follow the criteria from the trope's description(s). 2) If this has not been done already, EarsplittingLepidopteran should be called in/reported for shipping bias and lack of neutral wording, and Trustworthy69 should be called in/reported for shipping bias, lack of neutral wording, and Edit Warring.
Here's the edit history for the aforementioned three tropes: Falling Into His Arms
, First Kiss
, and Kiss Of Life
.
Here's the edit history for EarsplittingLepidopteran
, and here's the edit history for Trustworthy69
.
I will not do anything with those three aforementioned tropes until I get feedback from a more knowledgeable troper and/or a moderator.

edits consists mostly of long-winded rants against Star Trek Discovery, and one case of self-promotion (I don't know if it's acceptable, but it doesn't follow the page's format). I removed their paragraph on Fanon Discontinuity (aside from flaming and claiming the voice of a whole fandom, they had erased a line and merged together two sets of examples). They have left long rants on the Headscratchers page, but I'm not sure about removing them outright. I'd like them to be officially warned about this at least.
openSeinfeldIsUnfunny.LiveActionFilms Film
Noticed a lot of entries about Star Wars on SeinfeldIsUnfunny.Live Action Films that seem to argue with themselves, get facts incorrect, or are nattery.
"Darth Vader was noted in 1977 for being one of the scariest villains on-screen at the time. However, after becoming a heavily-marketed Series Mascot (even to kids), having seen Luke, I Am Your Father parodied a million times (which are, more often than not, more or less equal amount of Darth Vader clones) in the Expanded Universe,note which has been officially declared defunct by new Star Wars owner Disney, perhaps in part because of this trope and after getting to see villains like Exar Kun, Darth Revan or Kylo Ren, Vader is no longer perceived as the sinister force he once was, and instead has a reputation as a "cool" character akin to a superhero. Rogue One addresses this by depicting Vader, a One-Scene Wonder here, at his most sinister and brutal - making him Nightmare Fuel by 2016 standards and reminding audiences of why he's such a fearsome character."
"*** With some female fans complaining about the use of The Smurfette Principle in the series, many forget that having a woman like Leia being just as heroic as the male heroes was a groundbreaking move in the first place. Like the Vader example, this was addressed in The Force Awakens by having Rey, a woman, as the surprise main character, giving her a surge in popularity and serving as a breakthrough for the aging franchise." Seems unclear in the latter part if it's referring to Rey or Leia.
"*** George Lucas changed the 'Han shot first' scene because he and MPAA thought it was too dark and violent. Nowadays with the normalization of heroes shooting first, many fans consider the change to be an overreaction especially since Greedo was pointing a blaster at Han and he was acting in self-defense. Not helping matters is how later films show moments of heroes trying to kill helpless people like Cassian shooting a handicapped informant or Luke trying to kill his sleeping nephew." Han shot first was only changed in the '98 special editions, 21 years after ANH was first released.

openStar Wars Expanded Universe Film
The Star Wars Expanded Universe page includes the theatrical Star Wars films, all of them dating back to Star Wars in 1977.
It would seem logical that the theatrical films should not be on the Franchise index for Expanded Universe. The film are base canon (or whatever you'd call that). The Expanded Universe is everything else that's grown out of the theatrical features—cartoons, radio dramas, books, comic books, the Holiday Special, blah blah blah. You can't expand something from itself.
EDIT: The movies are also in Star Wars Legends.
Edited by jamespolkopenEdit War on Fallout 76 Videogame
I'm finding myself in an edit war on Fallout 76. A troper recently put the Doomed by Canon trope on the page, stating the Vault 76's mission to rebuild America in the aftermath of the nuclear war "obviously' failed based on how much of a bombed-out hell hole the Capital Wasteland of Washington D.C. and Boston Commonwealth are 185 years later.
- Vault 76's mission to restore America is obviously doomed to fail from the start, since the east coast is still a Crapsack World 185 years later."
Here's the thing though: this game is a prequel and a spinoff from the main series, but there is literally NO MENTION of the end results of Vault 76's efforts anywhere else in the entire franchise. There's no mention that it's located in West Virginia, or anything else. There's only a computer terminal in Fallout 3 that only mentions that Vault 76 exists.
According to the Doomed by Canon's own Playing With page, if something hasn't been mentioned in the main installments, then it counts as an Averted Trope, and thus should not be mentioned.
"Averted:
- Bob wasn't mentioned in "The Main Tropes", so it doesn't matter what his fate is."
Or, to put it into context:
"Vault 76's efforts aren't mentioned in the rest of the Fallout franchise, so it doesn't matter what its fate is."
The game hasn't even come out yet. It'll be released in November, so nobody actually knows if the game's main storyline will address any actual results from the efforts of the players. To say that they failed because of the Crapsack World that previous (but further down the timeline) installments are with literally zero mention of this game is ridiculous.
